thanks for the shoutout to TEDxCambridge. it was an amazing event. John actually came and did a special cocktail for us: he built soda and cassis in a highball glass, then dipped a long straw in angostura and slid it into the glass. those of us who listened carefully to his talk pulled the straw out and let the ingredients mix before drinking. those of us who didn't discovered that angostura actually makes a pretty good shot...

the next iteration of TEDxCambridge is coming up November 19th (tedxcambridge.com for tickets) and will be held at Harvard University.
